I am keeping a (private) journal of the experience. At my psych evaluation I complained about finding very little information for men online and he suggested writing a book on that.

Who knows? ;-)

No interest in blogging/videos... that's straight up attention whoring these days.

@@Fredbear .... Cmon....blogging and videos are "straight up attention whoring", but you writing a book on your experience is not?

Two sides of the same communication coin, and nothing wrong with either one.

I didn't go public for the attention. I went public to inspire others.

Attention whoring is pretty offensive. I feel like many of the video blogs have been very helpful to me and I have been thinking about doing one when I get to the pre-op diet phase.

What video editing platform are you guys using to vlog? I am interested in starting one but VERY lost on the editing/mashing videos and adding pics/text etc.

I just use the video editor on youtube, still not an expert and can't do much yet. You don't need to be fancy to start. Just start posting videos and add stuff as you go and as you learn. That is what I see most people do.

That's where I'm at, too. I was just looking for any support and community out there and thought it would be fun to dive in, but I really am a newbie. It looks like YouTube has a lot of cool functionality that I'll explore as I go! If you decide to take the leap, let us know - I'd love to see :)

I've decided to blog my journey at theantichick.com (but haven't put up any posts about it yet) and have considered doing a vlog, but I don't know about that. I think I'll subscribe to a couple of you guys' and see if I want to join in that as well.

      Day 1 of pre-op liquid diet (3 weeks) and I'm having a hard time already. I feel hungry and just want to eat. I got the protein and supplements recommend by my program and having a hard time getting 1 down. My doctor / nutritionist has me on the following:
      1 protein shake (bariatric advantage chocolate) with 8 oz of fat free milk 1 snack = 1 unjury protein shake (root beer) 1 protein shake (bariatric advantage orange cream) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein bar 1 protein shake (bariatric advantace orange cream or chocolate) 1 snack = 1 unjury protein soup (chicken) 3 servings of sugar free jello and popsicles throughout the day. 64 oz of water (I have flavor packets). Hot tea and coffee with splenda has been approved as well. Does anyone recommend anything for the next 3 weeks?

        All I can tell you is that for me, it got easier after the first week. The hunger pains got less intense and I kind of got used to it and gave up torturing myself by thinking about food. But if you can, get anything tempting out of the house and avoid being around people who are eating. I sent my kids to my parents' house for two weeks so I wouldn't have to prepare meals I couldn't eat. After surgery, the hunger was totally gone.

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.
